Title: Traditional Bowhunting Archives Book
Post by: John3 on June 29, 2008, 01:14:00 PM
I had to work last weekend so I could not be at Comptons. I knew the book would be available for the first time and I would miss it...

This weekend I went to our United Bowhunters of Missouri rendezvous in Hermann, MO.
Mike from the Nocking Point had two cases of the books. Yes I own one!

I cannot seem to put the book down. Even better than I hoped it would be. Great history, even better stories.
Larry Hudson (who wrote a chapter in the book) told me they started with a run of 2700 books. If you love traditional bowhunting find a copy before they are gone.

I haven't seen one for sale yet. I figured "A Walk in the Woods" would have an add for it, but I didn't see one in there. Must only be available thru dealers.

I haven't yet received the summer issue of the Compton newsletter. I was hoping there would be an ad and order form. I definitely want to purchase a copy of the new Archives book.
